welovetrump--2020-07-29--EPIC! 1,000+ Boaters Join Trump Boat Parade in Lake Hamilton

President Trump himself has acknowledged the boat parades .
In fact , he said that the parades are proof that the polls are wrong .
You see , voter enthusiasm matters as well .
This is why Trump 's signature campaign rallies were a telltale sign he was going to win .
If people were willing to stand hours ( if not days ) in line to get into the rally , then it only made sense that they would vote for him .
Likewise , the boat parades PROVE that the ENTHUSIASM is clearly on Trump 's side .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ against Trump , not for Biden ... sad !
The Palm Beach Post has more details on Trump 's comments on the parades : The president did not give details , other than to say his campaign ’ s internal surveys show him leading in North Carolina , Arizona , Pennsylvania and Florida .
Citing “ our numbers , ” President Trump boasted Monday that he is leading in almost every swing state and cited Florida boat parades as an example of spirited enthusiasm among his base .
The president did not give @ @ @ @ @ @ @ campaign ’ s internal surveys show him leading in North Carolina , Arizona , Pennsylvania and Florida .
“ The poll numbers we have are very good , ” Trump said speaking in Morrisville , N.C. “ We ’ re leading nicely in Florida .
I think our poll numbers are very good.
” Trump then singled out boat parades in Florida that he said speaks to voter enthusiasm for his re-election effort .
“ When you look at Florida , as an example , you have thousands of boats out in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they ’ re all waving the Trump sign , Trump-Pence sign , ” he said .
“ And they are so proud .
Thousands and thousands , you ’ ve seen it ...
I think there is more spirit now than there ’ s ever been for my campaign , and that includes 2016.
” We must not take the race for granted .
We must vote -- and encourage other Trump supporters to VOTE as well !
President Trump pulled off an upset in 2016 .
There 's no reason he ca @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 2020 !

Forget the polls!
Enthusiasm for the re-election of President Trump has never been greater as EPIC Trump boat parades continue to spread across the country.
The latest example happened at Lake Hamilton in Arkansas, where hundreds of participants joined. Some estimates pegged it at over 1,000!
Boaters proudly displayed American flags and Trump flags to show their support for the re-election of the 45th President of the United States.
Compare this to Joe Biden, who struggled to get 19 viewers (literally!) on an online streaming rally…
SAD!
Meanwhile, hundreds of boaters across the country are throwing Trump boat parades and are participating wherever possible.

With traditional campaigning suspended due to COVID-19 , the importance of money will be greater than ever .
For example , since campaigns ca n't hold rallies , they 'll be relying on television commercial ads as well as digital advertising to get their message across to voters .
Much of the money Soros is donating will likely be spent on campaign advertising as well as hiring political consultants .
According to the Washington Free Beacon : Liberal billionaire George Soros has flooded Democratic PACs and campaigns with $ 50 million this election cycle , shattering his personal record by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ go before the elections .
Soros ramped up his political spending this cycle through the Democracy PAC , which he created last year to pump large sums into the coffers of other left-wing groups .
New filings to the Federal Election Commission show the PAC doled out nearly $ 17 million last quarter , bringing its total cash disbursements this cycle to $ 48 million .

Apparently we should make decisions based on race, not merit.
That's what Representative Cedric Richmond appeared to suggest at the House Judiciary Hearing of Bill Barr.
Richmond said to AG Barr:
When you…brought your top staff, you brought no black people. That, sir, is systemic racism. … You really should keep the name of the honorable John Lewis out of the Department of Justice's mouth.
Of course, it is highly unlikely that Attorney General Barr considered race when bringing his top staff.
Realistically, he brought those who were most qualified to help.
If we're to take it back a step further, only those who applied for the position in the first place could have been selected to join AG Barr's initial staff.
Chances are that most of the applicants were caucasian and that the most qualified were chosen.
That is NOT systemic racism.

welovetrump--2020-07-29--Rep. Matt Gaetz Makes Criminal Referral Against FB CEO Mark Zuckerberg

Gaetz said Zuckerberg `` repeatedly and categorically denied '' Facebook engaged in bias against conservatives or censored content supportive of President Donald Trump .
However , a Project Veritas investigation revealed the `` overwhelming majority '' of content Facebook 's artificial intelligence filtered was in support of Trump and other Republican people and ideals .
The Republican congressman sent a letter to Attorney General William Barr asking the Department of Justice to investigate Zuckerberg .
The statements in question were made during a House Energy and Commerce Committee hearing and again at a joint hearing of the Senate Judiciary Committee @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Transportation Committee .
`` As a member of this body , I question Mr. Zuckerberg 's veracity , and challenge his willingness to cooperate with our oversight authority , diverting congressional resources during time-sensitive investigations , and materially impeding our work , '' Gaetz said in the letter .
`` Such misrepresentations are not only unfair , they are potentially illegal and fraudulent . ''
Zuckerberg told senators at the April 10 hearing that he understood concerns legislators had about conservative censorship because Silicon Valley is an `` extremely left-leaning place . ''
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ it 's something he tries to root out in the company .
The next day , he responded to a question from Representative Steve Scalise by saying there was `` absolutely no directive '' to have a bias in `` anything that we do . ''
`` To the contrary , our goal is to be a platform for all ideas , '' Zuckerberg said .
During Project Veritas ' undercover investigation , a Facebook content moderator said she would delete every Republican item that showed up on her queue .
She added @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , even if it violates the policy .
`` If someone is wearing a MAGA hat , I am going to delete them for terrorism , '' another moderator said .
`` I think we are all doing that . ''
Gaetz wrote in the letter to Barr that the findings of the Project Veritas investigation were in `` direct contrast '' with Zuckerberg 's testimony that Facebook was a `` politically-neutral platform . ''
`` Facebook 's AI screening content is not politically neutral .
Neither are the moderators hired to review @ @ @ @ @ @ @ '' Gaetz told Barr .
`` This stands in opposition to Mr. Zuckerberg 's congressional testimony , and violates the `` good faith '' provision of Section 230 ( c ) ( 2 ) ( A ) of the Communications Decency Act . ''

And from Newsweek:
Gaetz said Zuckerberg "repeatedly and categorically denied" Facebook engaged in bias against conservatives or censored content supportive of President Donald Trump. However, a Project Veritas investigation revealed the "overwhelming majority" of content Facebook's artificial intelligence filtered was in support of Trump and other Republican people and ideals.

And more from The Associated Press:
WASHINGTON (AP) — Eastman Kodak will receive a federal loan of $765 million to help reduce reliance on other countries for ingredients in generic drugs, an agreement President Donald Trump hailed Tuesday as a breakthrough in bringing more pharmaceutical manufacturing to the United States.
Kodak Pharmaceuticals will make critical pharmaceutical ingredients that have been identified as essential but have lapsed into chronic national shortage, as defined by the Food and Drug Administration.
The government loan will help support startup costs needed to repurpose and expand Kodak’s existing facilities in Rochester, New York, and St. Paul, Minnesota.
The Kodak unit will have the capacity to produce up to 25% of the active pharmaceutical ingredients needed to make generic drugs in the United States, Trump said.
“We must never be reliant on a foreign nation for America’s medical or other needs,” Trump said at the White House.
Shares of the one-time photography giant, based in Rochester, more than tripled on the announcement by the U.S. International Development Finance Corp.
Kodak has branched out to offset the large scale loss of its film business. Adam Boehler, who heads the IDF, said he learned that the company was interested in creating a start-up that could supply ingredients for pharmaceuticals.
“If you look at drugs, 90% of the drugs that we take today are generics, and they are almost all made overseas,” Boehler said in an interview on CNBC. “The dominant manufacturer of ingredients for generics is China, and No. 2 is India. And so, we said if we’re going to re-shore and bring things back and we’re going to have safety and security going forward, we need to change that.”
Trump called Kodak “one of the great brands in the world” and added that “then people went digital and Kodak didn’t follow.” He said the company has now hired some “of the best people in the world” for its new venture.
In a statement, IDF said that once it is fully operational, Kodak Pharmaceuticals would support 360 direct jobs and an additional 1,200 indirectly.
Trump’s rival in the presidential election, Democrat Joe Biden, has been criticizing the Trump administration for not pressing more companies into production of ventilators and other critical medical and protective equipment during the virus outbreak under the Defense Production Act.

From CNN:
Wilson, who is part Greek, and Hanks, a Greek Orthodox convert, have often been spotted spending their vacations in Greece, where they also own property on the island of Antiparos.
The two have produced several films based on the Greek community and never shy away from sharing their admiration for the country and its people.
"I've been Hellenic now for the better part of 32 years," Hanks told reporters at the 2020 Golden Globe Awards earlier this year. "Greece is a haven… I've been around the world, I've been to the most beautiful places in the world, none of them tops Greece."
"The land, the sky, the water, it's good for the soul, it's a healing place," Hanks said."

Democratic politicians should be held accountable for “letting their cities burn,” Texas Republican Sen. Ted Cruz told “America’s Newsroom” on Tuesday.
Cruz made the comment following violent protests in several cities. On Saturday, more than half a dozen U.S. cities experienced rioting and lawlessness – with the mayhem including damage to federal buildings and local police precincts, and a fatal shooting in Austin, Texas.
Similar protests and violent demonstrations have been seen across the country following the death of George Floyd, a Black man in Minnesota who died while in police custody. A video of the May 25 encounter with police officers showed a White officer putting his knee on Floyd's neck for more than eight minutes.
Cruz also reacted on Tuesday to a Wall Street Journal editorial published Monday titled, "A Weekend of Urban Anarchy.”
“The weekend’s events were a deliberate assault on public and private property, law enforcement, and public order,” the editorial board wrote. “Lawlessness begets lawlessness, and in recent weeks we’ve seen reports of vigilantes and far-right activists joining the melee from Richmond to Philadelphia. Local officials are allowing this disorder to occur, and the more it is indulged the worse it is likely to get.”
In response, Cruz said: “We’re seeing growing violence, we’re seeing physical assault, we’re seeing radicals, who are trying to really tear down our society and none of this should be complicated.
“You have a right to protest. I have a right to protest peacefully. We have a right to speak our minds. The First Amendment protects that,” he continued.
“What you or I don’t have a right to do is hurt somebody else. You don't have the right to physically assault someone else, to firebomb a police car, to loot and destroy a small business, to murder a police officer and sadly we’ve seen all of that in riots throughout the country.”

“NO! I’m NOT Oppressed!” Young Black Trump Supporter Goes Viral for Bold, Emotional, Passionate Message

It turned out the media is quietly warning the Democrat establishment that Biden is underperforming with black voters and that President Trump is OVERperforming with black voters .
CNN , specifically , is worried about this .
CNN is sounding the alarm for the Democrats , warning in a piece on Tuesday that former Vice President Joe Biden is underperforming while President Donald Trump is over-performing with black voters .
“ Joe Biden ’ s advantage over Trump with Black voters is currently smaller than Hillary Clinton ’ s was , ” read the headline on Tuesday from CNN ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of Enten ’ s article note that despite Black Lives Matter ( BLM ) protests nationwide since the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis , the incumbent GOP president is outperforming expectations against the presumptive Democrat nominee in the black community .
Despite a drop for Trump in national polls during the timeframe of the protests , with black voters Trump remains firmly where he was before—and Biden is not gaining any support either .
“ The death of George Floyd and subsequent protests reshaped the presidential race .
It brought race relations @ @ @ @ @ @ @ forefront , ” Enten wrote .
“ In that time , former Vice President Joe Biden ’ s advantage over President Donald Trump expanded from about six points to closer to 10 points .
Interestingly , however , Trump continues to do something perhaps unexpectedly among Black voters : Hold his own against Biden relative to many people ’ s expectations.
” Enten analyzed at least ten surveys that featured live interviews since the beginning of BLM protests , accounting for more than 1,000 total black voters .
What he found was bad @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
“ Biden leads in those polls by an 83 % to 8 % , or 75-point , margin , ” Enten wrote .
“ That , of course , is a huge advantage for Biden , but it also represents a small improvement for Trump since 2016 .
Hillary Clinton was ahead of Trump by a 79-point margin among Black registered voters in the pre-election polls taken right before the 2016 election , as compiled by the New York Times ’ Nate Cohn .
Biden , for what it ’ s worth @ @ @ @ @ @ @ % in those polls .
Trump ’ s picking up a lot of the vote that went to third-party candidates.
” While the percentages on the margins in the black community are very small in the “ grand scheme , ” Enten notes , this stronger-than-expected performance by Trump with black voters and weaker-than-expected showing from Biden could make a huge difference in a close election .
“ Given the way margins of error work ( i.e .
it gets smaller as the result gets more extreme ) , this slight improvement for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” Enten wrote .
“ Biden currently has such a large lead overall that Trump ’ s small gain among Black voters doesn ’ t really matter in the grand scheme of the 2020 election .
But if the race for president tightens , Trump ’ s small gain with Black voters could make a difference .
It could cost Biden 0.5 points nationally on the whole compared to where Clinton ended up .
That may not seem like a lot , though it could make the difference in a close election .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ s margin with Black voters may tighten further if the margin with other voters also shifts.
” CNN is hardly the first to notice Biden ’ s serious problem in the black community .
USA Today earlier in July published a feature piece headlined “ Young Black voters say they aren ’ t enthusiastic about a Joe Biden presidency.
” In it , author Rebecca Morin quotes a number of black voters who are unimpressed with Biden .
Then Morin noted a trend that Enten later picked up on at CNN : Biden @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
“ With the November election four months away , polling shows Biden ’ s support with younger Black voters trailing significantly behind that of older Black voters , ” Morin wrote .
“ And while polls show the majority of young Black voters support Biden over President Donald Trump , many are unenthusiastic at best or hesitant at worst .
”

It turned out the media is quietly warning the Democrat establishment that Biden is underperforming with black voters and that President Trump is OVERperforming with black voters.
CNN, specifically, is worried about this.
Breitbart reports:
CNN is sounding the alarm for the Democrats, warning in a piece on Tuesday that former Vice President Joe Biden is underperforming while President Donald Trump is over-performing with black voters.
“Joe Biden’s advantage over Trump with Black voters is currently smaller than Hillary Clinton’s was,” read the headline on Tuesday from CNN’s Harry Enten.
The opening paragraphs of Enten’s article note that despite Black Lives Matter (BLM) protests nationwide since the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis, the incumbent GOP president is outperforming expectations against the presumptive Democrat nominee in the black community. Despite a drop for Trump in national polls during the timeframe of the protests, with black voters Trump remains firmly where he was before—and Biden is not gaining any support either.
“The death of George Floyd and subsequent protests reshaped the presidential race. It brought race relations, racism and police brutality to the forefront,” Enten wrote. “In that time, former Vice President Joe Biden’s advantage over President Donald Trump expanded from about six points to closer to 10 points. Interestingly, however, Trump continues to do something perhaps unexpectedly among Black voters: Hold his own against Biden relative to many people’s expectations.”
Enten analyzed at least ten surveys that featured live interviews since the beginning of BLM protests, accounting for more than 1,000 total black voters. What he found was bad for Biden, and good for Trump.
“Biden leads in those polls by an 83% to 8%, or 75-point, margin,” Enten wrote. “That, of course, is a huge advantage for Biden, but it also represents a small improvement for Trump since 2016. Hillary Clinton was ahead of Trump by a 79-point margin among Black registered voters in the pre-election polls taken right before the 2016 election, as compiled by the New York Times’ Nate Cohn. Biden, for what it’s worth, is equaling Clinton’s 83% in those polls. Trump’s picking up a lot of the vote that went to third-party candidates.”
While the percentages on the margins in the black community are very small in the “grand scheme,” Enten notes, this stronger-than-expected performance by Trump with black voters and weaker-than-expected showing from Biden could make a huge difference in a close election.
“Given the way margins of error work (i.e. it gets smaller as the result gets more extreme), this slight improvement for Trump from 2016 is statistically significant,” Enten wrote. “Biden currently has such a large lead overall that Trump’s small gain among Black voters doesn’t really matter in the grand scheme of the 2020 election. But if the race for president tightens, Trump’s small gain with Black voters could make a difference. It could cost Biden 0.5 points nationally on the whole compared to where Clinton ended up. That may not seem like a lot, though it could make the difference in a close election. And, of course, Biden’s margin with Black voters may tighten further if the margin with other voters also shifts.”
CNN is hardly the first to notice Biden’s serious problem in the black community. USA Today earlier in July published a feature piece headlined “Young Black voters say they aren’t enthusiastic about a Joe Biden presidency.”
In it, author Rebecca Morin quotes a number of black voters who are unimpressed with Biden. Then Morin noted a trend that Enten later picked up on at CNN: Biden has a polling problem with black voters.
“With the November election four months away, polling shows Biden’s support with younger Black voters trailing significantly behind that of older Black voters,” Morin wrote. “And while polls show the majority of young Black voters support Biden over President Donald Trump, many are unenthusiastic at best or hesitant at worst.”

The portions of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , New Mexico and California .
Justice Stephen Breyer , joined by Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg , Elena Kagan and Sonia Sotomayor dissented .
Breyer noted that by the time the court reaches the case on the merits , the portion of the wall may already be complete .

The dispute concerns the ACLU 's challenge to the use of $ 2.5 billion from the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ along the southwestern border .
Last month , a federal appeals court ruled against Trump , arguing that the administration does n't have the authority to divert Pentagon funds to build additional barriers on the US-Mexico border without congressional authorization .

`` The fight continues , '' said Dror Ladin , staff attorney with the ACLU 's National Security Project , in a statement following the Supreme Court 's order @ @ @ @ @ @ @ against the wall and asserted that the high court 's order Friday was temporary and not the final say on the case .

It is a win for Trump, who has made the construction of the wall a cornerstone of his presidency.
The portions of the wall in question are in Arizona, New Mexico and California.
Justice Stephen Breyer, joined by Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Elena Kagan and Sonia Sotomayor dissented. Breyer noted that by the time the court reaches the case on the merits, the portion of the wall may already be complete.
"The Court's decision to let construction continue nevertheless, I fear, may operate in effect, as a final judgment," Breyer wrote.
The dispute concerns the ACLU's challenge to the use of $2.5 billion from the Pentagon to construct parts of the wall along the southwestern border.

"The fight continues," said Dror Ladin, staff attorney with the ACLU's National Security Project, in a statement following the Supreme Court's order.

welovetrump--2020-07-31--Liberals Outraged As President Trump Suggests a Delay In The November Election!

Here 's the spin the BBC put on it : Donald Trump has suggested November 's presidential election be postponed , saying increased postal voting could lead to fraud and inaccurate results .
He floated a delay until people could `` properly , securely and safely '' vote .
There is little evidence to support Mr Trump 's claims but he has long railed against mail-in voting which he has said would be susceptible to fraud .
US states want to make postal voting easier due to public health concerns over the coronavirus pandemic .
Under the US constitution , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to postpone the election himself .
Any delay would have to be approved by Congress .
The president does not have direct power over the two houses of Congress .
What did Trump say ?
In a series of tweets , Mr Trump said `` universal mail-in voting '' would make November 's vote the `` most inaccurate and fraudulent election in history '' and a `` great embarrassment to the USA '' .
He suggested - without providing evidence - that mail-in voting , as it is known in the US , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ `` The [ Democrats ] talk of foreign influence in voting , but they know that Mail-In Voting is an easy way for foreign countries to enter the race , '' he said .
Mr Trump also said postal voting was `` already proving to be a catastrophic disaster '' in areas where it was being tried out .
In June , New York allowed voters to vote by post in the Democratic primary poll for the party 's presidential candidate .
But there have been long delays in counting the ballots and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ media report that there are also concerns that many ballots will not be counted because they were not filled in correctly or do not have postmarks on them that show they were sent before voting officially ended .
However , several other states have long conducted votes by post .
Donald Trump ca n't delay November 's presidential election without Congress , partially controlled by the Democrats , first approving the decision .
If he did n't already know this , someone has certainly told him by now .
The president also must @ @ @ @ @ @ @ even framed as an `` I 'm just asking ! ''
question - is sure to ignite a political firestorm , particularly after he has repeatedly refused to say whether he 'd accept an adverse result in the upcoming presidential election .
Mr Trump appears to be doing everything in his power to undermine the credibility of November 's vote , in which a record number of Americans are predicted to rely on mail-in voting to avoid the risk of exposure to the coronavirus .
He 's repeatedly made false and misleading claims @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and suggested broad conspiracy theories .
Critics warn that he could be laying the groundwork for contesting the results - although the purpose may be simply to give him a scapegoat if he loses .
His tweet could also be an attempt to divert attention away from the truly dismal second-quarter economic numbers just released .
He 's been relying on a financial turnaround to breathe life into his re-election campaign , and instead the outlook appears exceedingly gloomy .

welovetrump--2020-07-31--Mitt Romney Goes After Trump for Troop Withdrawal from Germany

Yet based off his constant criticism of the President , you would think we elected Mitt Romney .
After Trump ’ s announcement that the US would withdraw thousands of troops from Germany , Mitt Romney felt the need to chime in and give his two-cents .
Read the story from the Salt Lake Tribune : As the Trump administration announced plans Wednesday to remove thousands of U.S. troops from Germany , Sen. Mitt Romney criticized that as a huge mistake that hurts American allies and helps adversaries .
The Utah Republican issued a statement that the move “ is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ slap in the face at a friend and ally when we should instead be drawing closer in our mutual commitment to deter Russian and Chinese aggression.
” Germany is a hub for U.S. operations in the Middle East and Africa .
Romney , the 2012 GOP presidential nominee , added , “ It is a gift to Russia coming at a time when we just have learned of its support for the Taliban and reports of bounties on killing American troops .
The move may temporarily play well in domestic politics , but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to American interests.
” Romney has been fighting the move since Trump earlier proposed it .
The senator had introduced an amendment to the annual defense authorization bill to limit the use of funds to reduce U.S. troops in Germany — but amid political maneuvering , it never came to a vote before the Senate passed its version of the bill .
A House version of that bill contains provisions designed to limit troop withdrawal , and still must be reconciled with the Senate version .
The move is another example of Romney @ @ @ @ @ @ @ when he believes it is warranted — after he earlier was the only Republican senator to vote to impeach Trump .
Trump brings up a very valid point in removing US troops from Germany .
Why should the US foot the bill to keep those soldiers there ?
Germany is an extremely wealthy first-world country .
If it ’ s so concerned about Russia , let it use its own soldiers .
